October 27th
...See more Hi everyone! This post provides the latest information on academy programs. Every once in a while we will renew our posts to ensure the information is up to date and you can be sure that you are getting the most updated information. The 7 Cups Academy is a tuition-free institution that trains members, listeners, and researchers to develop skills and better care for our community. These are professional skills that are of great use even outside 7 Cups. We believe in practice-driven learning and all of our courses have in-field experience at the core. This post is dedicated to providing listeners with the information they need on opportunities available to them within 7 Cups Academy. The 7 Cups Academy has had 1600+ graduates.  How is 7 Cups Academy different from training guides or other educational material available at 7 Cups? The academy programs target specific skills like leadership, content development, etc. Trainees not only get theoretical knowledge of the subject but also spend time practicing the skills under our practicum opportunities. That is not all, one of the challenging parts of learning something new is that it can be an isolating experience and at times you may feel like the motivation is fading. At 7 Cups Academy, we understand your support needs. We have mentors who check in with you regularly to help you navigate the set of requirements and to offer support and encouragement. Additionally, we believe in a student-led approach. Feedback from our trainees results in constant improvements to the program’s coursework and structure. An example of this is our launch of group check-ins where academy trainees can connect with fellow trainees and share experiences. Why choose 7 Cups Academy? * All of our programs are completely free * 1-1 mentor support to help you graduate * You choose your program duration and can seek extensions * Our programs focus on hands-on practical training * The programs offer training in sought-after professional skills * You will be provided with a certificate and a badge upon successful completion * You will train among a group of like-minded individuals who you can learn from * It is a great way to work towards a 7 Cups role. Academy graduates gain relevant experience that makes them good candidates for 7 Cups roles within that focus. * All graduates (from any of the academy programs) can request a letter of recommendation * We provide 7 Cups work verifications, references for school/university/work applications * Not only will we provide you with valuable training, but we can also verify your work experience if needed.

January 29th
...See more Hi everyone, I hope you are doing well. I am here to share exciting news with you all. 7 Cups Academy has turned 4!! This is a major milestone and marks 4 years of providing opportunities to our community to work on professional development and personal growth. In the past year we launched the Inner Development Goals Course and have decided to convert the Group Support Program into the Group Dynamics Course will be launched soon. To date, 1600+ trainees and interns have graduated from academy programs and 692 people have completed academy courses.  On this celebratory milestone, let us remember the hard work of our academy leaders (Academy ambassadors, mentor leaders, mentors, forum supporters, and project agents) who have all worked hard to ensure that our trainees are supported and have the information needed to successfully graduate. A special thanks to our dedicated admins, @Heather225 (played a key role in helping establish the academy and led the LDP in the early days) @Soulfullyabutterfly (Helped launch the CDM Program and IDG Course along with assisting with maintenance of both) @ASilentObserver (Launched the group support program and played a key role in maintenance of it). Every single person who has contributed to 7 Cups Academy in the past or is currently doing so is valuable to us and shares a part in our collective success. But of course, we would not be here if our community users were not so dedicated towards their personal growth and professional development. It is our community's interest in 7 Cups Academy that has allowed it to expand and grow throughout these years.  To mark this special occasion, we are introducing two new badges! Badge Name: Academy Summit * Description: For completing all academy programs available at the time.  * Current eligibility criteria: Have completed the 7 Cups Internship, Content Development and Marketing (CDM), Leadership Development (LDP), and Quality Listening Program (QLP). Members only need to have completed CDM and LDP.  Badge Name: Ripple Effect * Description: For completing all academy courses available at the time.  * Current eligibility criteria: Has completed the community building, time management, and Inner Development Goals Course. The criteria are the same for members and listeners The eligibility criteria will fluctuate if we add/remove academy programs/courses. The badge application form will remain up to date with the updated criteria. You must have completed the programs or courses on the same account to be eligible for the badge.  The goal of these badges is to acknowledge the trainees/interns/users who have spent a significant amount of time working on their personal development and professional improvement. You do not have to complete any more programs or courses than you wish to. Everyone is encouraged to work within their capacity. You will still get the individual program certificates and badges.  🌻Apply for the badges through this form [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf0aNjQp35AqDYH_IFWE4utiQAR6pf0sfIpUJNVI9nUGvw4cg/viewform] Join us in the 7 Cups Academy Room to celebrate with us!
